Wounded Warrior Project

The Wounded Warrior Project offers a wide range of assistance, from help collecting disability benefits, to help in healing PTSD wounds, to continuing education for a post-military life. WWP can connect you with benefits counselors who can guide you through the VA maze. And their programs include Project Odyssey, a retreat with fellow vets that involves hiking, kayaking and whitewater rafting. With the WWP’s Track program, vets receive a scholarship to attend Florida State College at Jacksonville or The Alamo Colleges in San Antonio. If you call the organization’s phone number and explain your situation, the advisor will tell you about the WWP programs that are right for you. Their staff also replies to email and to messages left on Facebook.
